I have to agree... not being able to get the coyote in the top dog F150 is a turn off. I thought Ford learned their lesson when they first remote v8 from the limited a few years back.
Hi Jorge! I still love my 2021 F150 Platinum that you helped me configure and order. Thanks for keeping us updated on the Ford offering. I never knew that three was a Platinum Plus trim Level for 2024. Now I know! Keep up the excellent work! Powerboost here, and I would miss the tailgate application if I upgraded to a 2024!
Love the redesign. Definitely the Platinum Plus, but I'm NOT happy that they did away with the tailgate applique. That's what made the truck look posh. The stamped tailgate with F150 looks cheap. I thought I saw one video where the tailgate on the Platinum Plus wasn't stamped with F150 and it had Platinum lettering on the tailgate. Is this an option? I lease a 2023 Limited, and unfortunately, if Ford keeps jacking the prices and going backward with removing popular items, then this will be the last Ford for me. Great video btw.
I hear you. Changes can be tough, especially when they mess with the truck's posh factor. Let's hope Ford's listening and brings back the bling for those who want to make a statement with their tailgate! Thanks for the insights and may your future tailgates be posh and your leases be gentle on the wallet!
I've seen the regular '24 Platinum with black 22" wheels also. 22s are not limited only to the Platinum Plus. The only difference is that you can onlyy get the 22s in black on the regular Platinum.
@@Askjorgelopez There is no limited Trim. If you're referring to the Platinum Plis lettering, that still doesn't count. I think Ford did this because they wanted to save money and make all of the tailgates mostly universal
The platinum plus is awesome 👌 I especially like the rapid red color. I definitely will be getting one. I currently have a 2019 xlt f-150 ruby red. Thanks for the presentation!
I really really wish Ford would give the Plus more than ONE engine option. They are really trying to cut costs and it will backfire. At least have the EcoBoost and V-8 option. Come on Ford!
I think Ford envisioned the Platinum Plus as a luxurious cruiser, but a V8 option would've been a great addition to complement its premium interior. Thank you for watching.
Obviously they need the rear aplique. That’s what makes them look luxurious. And they need to work on making different front grilles for the top trims. I think the lariat and below trims grilles look way better.
I know what you mean I am a fan of the rear applique but its interesting that I have been getting mixed opinions on the tailgate half wants it, half do not. I am really looking forward to see what 2025 model brings us.
I feel your pain! Those 22-inch wheels are impressive, but they definitely come with their own parking challenges. City life sure knows how to keep things interesting!
You should have compared it to a Platinum without the blackout package. That would have been a better comparison between trucks. But since you did, I like the blackout package. The Platinum Plus looks more like an old man's truck. 👴 #trucks #carcomparison I do like the applique on the tailgate on the older trucks, but I'm bummed they got rid of it. 🛻 #trucks #tailgate
I'm pretty sure these are the only selections now. It's the blacked out Platinum or the Platinum Plus. They did away with the non blacked out Platinum without the light colored "Plus or Limited" style trim which I think is a huge miss. I notice some of the trims on the blacked out Platinum are just shiny grey plastic material and not wood trim like in the prior version like I have. I don't like the update at all.
The badging plate is much better for the tailgate. The Platinum looks like any other truck without it. I will not buy one if they do to go back to the badging plate. Why spend so much money for the same look as the XL truck?
I agree 100% if you are paying top dollar, that tailgate applique earns bragging rights. Tailgate applique back in the 2025 fingers crossed. Thank you for watching dont forget to subscribe I have alot more great content coming in.
I'm also a big fan of the tailgate plaque. Who knows, maybe it will make a comeback next year. Thanks for watching! I've got more content coming, so don't forget to subscribe.
Jorge show us a comparison on the expedition limited and platinum. They’re very similar on the exterior, is it worth the money to upgrade to the platinum?
Both the Limited and Platinum offer a luxurious interior experience. However, the Platinum sets itself apart with its premium soft-touch materials on the dashboard, door panels, steering wheel, and center console. This creates a more upscale and refined feel. Both trims feature the SYNC 4A infotainment system, but the platinum does have a larger touch screen system. The core functionality is similar, the Platinum may have additional features or software updates.
If you get the max recline seats, does it still have the massaging function? Also, does the truck still have the onboard scale and adaptive suspension? Thanks again great video
Howdy! Yes, the Platinum trim level comes standard with max recline seats with massage function, an onboard scale, and adaptive suspension (which Ford calls Continuous Controlled Damping)."
Ford has to innovate to keep things fresh for their loyal customers; otherwise, they'd just be selling the same thing over and over. Makes sense, right?
I really appreciate the badging on the limited trim levels and hope Ford includes it in next year's design. If you enjoy the content, please hit the subscribe button. Thank you for watching!
Hello Jorge, Does the Platinum Plus come in a 157"wheelbase? If not does the base Platinum come with 703A as an option? Also, if not, can you get the base Platinum with chrome painted wheel? Thank you.
@Askjorgelopez for the 2025 Platinums I no longer see the 703A as an option for the online build. Do you know if thats discontinued? Or is it an option that is expected later in the year?
Jorge appreciate your videos. I drive a Platinum now and Im in the market for a 2024 F150 Platinum Plus with the Carbonized Grey. I miss the tailgate applique so will be holding out until the pro access tailgates begin shipping. Do you have a date of when those are expected? Are there any finance incentives currently. Seeing Chevy do 1.9% again. Im here in Texas so not far from you.
Right on! Yes Ford's "Job 2" has begun, meaning the production of pro access tailgates is underway, to go over the details with you email my assistant at mmedina@tomballfordsales.com with your contact info that way we go over everything in details and work together on this.
Howdy! I completely understand your frustration with the wait. From what I've heard, ongoing part shortages are still causing delays, especially now that Ford has started building some of the 2025 models. What your configuration on your platinum order?
Having a 2019 limited, I'm partial towards the platinum plus. And I prefer the look of the old tail gate badging as it set the truck a bit more apart from the rest. As for the pricing, not too bad considering msrp for my truck was $74k.
I wish those heat extractors could be real. Darn. Do you know, are those side vents infront of the front door real, or also fake? I am leaning towards Platinum Plus but I do like the all black front of the Platinum much better, and I don't like chrome, so if I went PP I might do an all black chrome delete job after market, depending on that added cost of course, which I have no idea about. Though I'd make the door handles body colored. And I'd make the face of the tailgate all body colored. I love the design and added comfort of the PP seats, and I do like that smoke truffle color, though I do wish they could be all black like the P. I do prefer dual exhausts. Oh well. One thing I am torn about it whether to get the 5.5' or 6.5' bed. Any thoughts on how those two bed lengths drive compared to the other, on and off road? If I could play Mr. Potato Head, I'd put the max luxury interior of the Platinum Plus into the Tremor, or the Raptor, and add the hybrid Powerboost engine. Oh well. So many good choices, though.
Yeah upper heat extractors are not functional, however, the side heat extractors located in front of the doors function as intended. As far as the bed lenght technically should make it a smoother ride but the difference isnt really noticable but your max playload capacity increases. It'd be awesome if we could just mix and match Platinum parts on a Tremor, that'd be the ultimate truck.
Same here! If I'm spending top dollar, I want to show it off! LOL. Thanks for watching. If you're loving the content, don't forget to hit that subscribe button like it owes you money.
No V-8 options for these trucks - are you kidding me??? First Ford wastes time and money on EVs that *the market does not want* (and they took a 4 Billion Dollar LOSS ON) and now they remove the V8 engines from the F150 line up??? Is Ford trying to lose *all* their customers? Really - top notch market research Ford - top notch.
Yeah it has been a while that I have seen that type of interior in a truck, Ford should make a classic trim design that mixes all the earlier designs mixed in to a modern chassis. Maybe call it the Ford F-150 legacy
Go for the plus! The looks are much better although ford could have done a better job with the chrome appearance package but that would have taken the msrp up around the 90K. IT would be worth the extra 5K
average wait time for this trim level is around 6 - 7 months but luckily our dealership ordered a few ahead of time to make sure you dont have to wait that long. What color you looking for?
The manufacturing of Job 2 orders is set to start next week. Consequently, we should begin to see custom orders arriving within about a month or so but a bit longer before we start stocking them in the lot.
That's a sharp truck! I am a fan of the There are definitely some changes to the new F-150 design. Have you seen the new interior options? They're pretty swanky!
@@Askjorgelopez I have I'm a Ford fan i have owned many pickup trucks, all fords I have seen the big improvements in every new generation I ordered mine from ford and loaded up with many options like powerboost, fold flat seats unleashed sound system panoramic sunroof blue cruise I'm going to wait for the 15th generation to see what new surprises ford has for us
They do actually, both of these truck in the video left this week the red one just left yesterday. But you wont see these on the lot too often these are custom orders.
They might, but remember, if they add that option, the price tag is going to get as high as your insurance premiums after a teenage son learns to drive. Ford made the 3.5 standard because it’s supposed to be a luxury vehicle, like getting leather seats in a minivan-it just sounds fancier. Sure, the 3.5 has more horsepower, but if you're into reliability and consistent performance, the 5.0 is your go-to. Just be prepared to watch your gas gauge drop faster than a New Year's resolution to hit the gym. As always thank you for watching!
1:45 "With a non functional heat extractor in the front". In what way exactly does it merit to be called a heat extractor in that case? Why not call it a piece of plastic trim?
I always tell my customers that when they come in to check out these trucks, the top heat extractor is mainly a cosmetic feature rather than a functional one. While there are two functioning heat extractors on the sides, the top one is mostly for show. That’s why I mention it in the video as well.
That sounds like an incredible setup! A platinum V8 supercharged 4x4 with a 3/5 drop would be a beast. Currently, the 3.5 EcoBoost is standard with the Platinum, but it still packs plenty of power. Thank you for watching, don't forget to subscribe.
What's the percentage of the USA & Canada parts and what is the Mexican parts for the f150 has to be the same as Rams 90% or GM 's 73% what is the parts content f150?? 😮
It irks me that they took the beautiful wood interior trim pieces and replaced it with the plastic trim you find in the XLTs. I have a 22 platinum with the black out package. So Ford now charge $15k more for the platinum (not plus), took away the nice rear plate, got rid of the interior wood… shrinkflation has hit Ford.
I hear ya, changes are made based on customer demand and to keep the product fresh. Ford updates its designs to align with current trends and customer preferences, ensuring that each model feels new and relevant. Thank you for watching don't forget to subscribe.
I believe there are two reasons for this. First, Ford takes the opportunity to revamp the look to see what works and what doesn’t, avoiding selling the same thing repeatedly. Secondly, Ford makes changes based on customer demand. This year, many loyal customers love the tailgate applique and want it back. Fingers crossed, it might make a comeback in next year’s lineup. Thank for watching hit that subscribe button !
Yes in order to keep up with the order demands and manufacturing for both stock and custom orders without delay, some features were not added to these vehicle because of chip shortage still maybe the 25's we will see something new.
@@cuellarMMRI just finished shooting my next RU-vid video, where I discuss the Ford Raptor. I have a few available, so if you're interested, give me a call at 281-205-0352 or text me with your name and mention that we connected through RU-vid.
The black out package does give the vehicle a distinctive look oppose to the chrome look. But I think this year chrome package has been in a high demand. It give the high trim a very regal look makes your standout everywhere you look and the black out package really for people would like to stay under the radar.
The black one looks why better. I have a platinum and I try the platinum plus and doesn't worth, chairs are very bad and the color for the leather......no, that blue and gray or blue and black NO SIR
I have been a Ford Man all my life but I think I have to go to GMC to get a V8. I think Ford is making a big mistake buy not offering a V8😢.. or I'll have to go to the 2023 F150 Platinum.
The reason they didn't offer the V8 in the Platinum model is that the goal was to create a luxurious, smooth, and quiet driving experience. However, if there's enough demand for a Platinum version with a V8, we might see it added next year. You never know!
latinum Plus is definitely the way to go! Imagine taking this bad boy on a long road trip-you can finally travel with ease. Plus, with BlueCruise, it's simply amazing.
Great video, I especially like the rolling option packages and the difference between power under the hood. Now, I just need to decide on Ford Platinum Plus or GMC Sierra Denali Ultimate. Gave me some tempting reasons to consider Ford.
I get some are love the rumble of the V8 I know i do but with this economy and gas prices going up would you think an eco boost would help on the gas. You get a bit more horse power while using less gas and are more realiable. I think thats why ford made the 3.5 the standard rather than the V8, maybe in the future ford will make this model.
I came out of a 22' Denali Ultimate to a Platinum w/ 702a and max recline (I didnt like all the chrome on the plus). I will never look back. The blue cruz crushes gm's version. I always thought GMC was supposed to have an upper edge, but even on the DU, when i shut my door... it just didnt have the "thump" that my F150 does.
I think both look amazing, but the seat in the Platinum Plus offers extra comfort with its cross-stitching. Who knew such a small detail could make such a difference? I invite you to test drive one so you can see what I mean! Thank you for watching, don't forget to subscribe.
I know that the V8 s existing is less and less every year. I know that many people do Embrace the future of performance and efficiency! How many miles in your 2.7? Thanks for sharing your excitement! It would be awesome to have you as a subscriber for more F150 content! Thanks for stopping by!
The Platinum does come with more features than the Lariat, but it really depends on how you plan to use the truck and what you prioritize. However, it's a great option if you're looking for extra comfort and, of course, status. Thank you for watching don't forget to subscribe.
It's like going to a party and finding out they only have soda, no cocktails. What's the point if you can't get the good stuff, right? Sure, the other options might get you from point A to point B. I feel you-if it doesn't have that V8 rumble, it's just not the same. Keep the faith, and maybe they'll bring back the 5.0 when they realize some folks prefer their trucks with a side of growl!
Tengo un canal en espanol se llama "conexion ford" pero para este video no me dio chance de hacer uno en espanol, se vendio luego luego despues de filme este video.
Totally get it. If you love the sound and power of a V8, it's hard to give it up. Keeping your '22 until it's a money pit sounds like a solid plan-just don't park it over a geyser, or you might find out what a money pit really looks like! Keep revving that V8 and let the world know you mean business!
@@Askjorgelopez yes sr i got two f 150s 2014 single cab with the v8 and 03 super crew with the 5.4 triton v8, im thinking on a stx with the v8 👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌
